This generously illustrated and beautifully presented catalogue was produced to accompany an exhibition of Japanese paintings held at the Kunsthal in Rotterdam in 2007. It incudes a selection of essays on aspects of Japanese animal paintings and brush work from the 18th, 19th and early 120th centuries.
